Recently The Travelling Toe and 3 other Dear Friends visited the Kimbell Art Museum to view the latest exhibit, "A Modern Vision of European Masterworks from The Phillips Collection". Duncan Phillips amassed a vast number of artworks ranging from Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Expressionist. In 1921, Mr. Phillips opened the Phillips Collection in his family home and it is considered to be the first American museum dedicated to modern art.

Photographs were not allowed in the museum but The Travelling Toe purchased several postcards with some of the paintings we saw on display - needless to say these postcards do not do justice to the real paintings
 |
| Vincent Van Gogh The Road Menders |
 |
| Edgar Degas Dancers at the Barre |
 |
| Edouard Manet Ballet Espagnol |
 |
| Alfred Sisley Snow at Louveciennes |
We all thoroughly enjoyed viewing these works of art that we might never have had the opportunity too see them if not being on loan to the Kimbell. What a wonderful way to spend about an hour viewing these beautiful pieces of art! Then having lunch afterwards of course!
